What surprises me most is that the US doesn't seem to have the same law as here in Canada. Here, pretty much only the bank, government, or your employer can ask for your social as that's the law. Plus, they don't send it in the clear on-line. You'll get receipts either from a secure Web site or physically mailed to your address.
